GenH, Inc.; Notice of Preliminary
Determination of a Qualifying Conduit
Hydropower Facility and Soliciting
Comments and Motions To Intervene
On April 12, 2018, GenH, Inc. filed a
notice of intent to construct a qualifying
conduit hydropower facility, pursuant
to section 30 of the Federal Power Act
(FPA), as amended by section 4 of the
Hydropower Regulatory Efficiency Act
of 2013 (HREA). The proposed
McClellan Wash Hydro Station Project
would have an installed capacity of 75
kilowatts (kW), and would be located at
the existing McClellan Wash Drop along
the Central Main Canal near Eloy, Pinal
County, Arizona.
Applicant Contact: Robert Freda, 306
Bellevue St., Boston, MA 02132, Phone
No. (617) 435–6288.
FERC Contact: Christopher Chaney,
Phone No. (202) 502–6778, email:
Christopher.Chaney@ferc.gov.
Qualifying Conduit Hydropower
Facility Description: The proposed
project would consist of: (1) Five 15-kW
Turgo turbine units with a total
installed capacity of 75 kW located at
the McClellan Wash Drop of the Central
Main Canal; and (2) appurtenant
facilities. The proposed project would
have an estimated annual generating
capacity of about 900,000 kilowatthours.
A qualifying conduit hydropower
facility is one that is determined or
deemed to meet all of the criteria shown
in the table below.
TABLE 1—CRITERIA FOR QUALIFYING CONDUIT HYDROPOWER FACILITY
Statutory Provision
Description
Satisfies
(Y/N)
FPA 30(a)(3)(A), as amended by HREA ..
The conduit the facility uses is a tunnel, canal, pipeline, aqueduct, flume, ditch, or
similar manmade water conveyance that is operated for the distribution of water
for agricultural, municipal, or industrial consumption and not primarily for the generation of electricity.
The facility is constructed, operated, or maintained for the generation of electric
power and uses for such generation only the hydroelectric potential of a non-federally owned conduit.
The facility has an installed capacity that does not exceed 5 megawatts ..................

On or before August 9, 2013, the facility is not licensed, or exempted from the licensing requirements of Part I of the FPA.

information and criteria, Commission
staff preliminarily determines that the
proposal satisfies the requirements for a
qualifying conduit hydropower facility,
which is not required to be licensed or
exempted from licensing.

Deadline for filing comments contesting
whether the facility meets the qualifying
criteria is 45 days from the issuance
date of this notice.
Deadline for filing motions to
intervene is 30 days from the issuance
